Replying to Skiing in college

Right now a senior in hs and getting accepted into a few colleges. I’ve gotten into university of Minnesota and University of Minnesota Duluth which are probably my top two choices now. If I went to umn I wouldn’t have a car and none of my buddies would either. Wondering how hard it would be to get to those places with gear. Also how often I would even be able to. If I went to Duluth I’d have a car and they have some great places to ski around there. Let me know if anyone has any input!
